Repair vs. Replacement — Honest Advice

If your system is over 12–15 years old, uses R-22 refrigerant (now phased out), or the repair cost exceeds roughly half the cost of a new unit, replacement is often the smarter financial decision. We give you both options with real numbers — no pressure, no upselling.

Signs replacement may make more sense: compressor failure on an older unit, multiple failures in one season, R-22 systems with refrigerant leaks, or efficiency below 10 SEER on a system running constantly.
